I'm a free spirited aging hippie
who loves talking to flowers, chasing rainbows
and photographing all the beauty that surrounds us
Thanks for taking a peek into my little world

The Forgotten

So many pilings now stand forgotten
no longer used or needed
growing whatever will grow
in these small spaces
Along the Columbia River

I always find these a bit spooky, I dont know why, but your photo is beautiful.

You are correct on that - so many left to be alone.

Very pretty photo. I like the way the angle changes as the piling enters the water. I've seen these and wondered about them. Did they used to support an old dock or pier? Or perhaps just a spot to tie a boat to?

Repurposed by giving a spot for new life. Love the simplicity and mute colours... well done!

Thank you all so much.
Log tie-ups, boat docks, fisheries and canneries once lined the Lower Columbia River. Now mostly of the past.
